Volkswagen India have opened bookings for the 2026 Tayron R-Line for a token amount of Rs. 51,000. The Tayron R-Line is essentially a Tiguan R-Line with 3 rows of seats. Expected to launch in the coming days, the Tayron R-Line will mark Volkswagen India’s return to the premium 3-row SUV segment post the discontinuation of the Tiguan All-Space back in 2021.

The India-spec Tayron R-Line closely mirrors the global model, featuring a sporty yet premium design. Up front, the SUV gets full-LED headlamps, a sleek LED light bar and an illuminated Volkswagen logo, instantly setting it apart as a flagship offering. The R-Line treatment adds sportier bumper elements and distinctive badging.
From the side, the Tayron’s longer wheelbase compared to the Tiguan is evident, which should translate into improved 3rd-row space. The SUV rides on 19-inch alloy wheels. At the rear, connected LED tail lamps, an illuminated VW logo and a roof-mounted spoiler complete the premium look.
The Tayron R-Line will offer a tech-loaded cabin with features such as:
The Tayron R-Line shares its powertrain with the Tiguan R-Line. This means a 2L turbo-petrol engine producing around 204PS and 320Nm, paired with a 7-speed DSG automatic. An all-wheel-drive system will be offered as standard. The global model has already achieved a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, which bodes well for the India-spec SUV.
In terms of safety and convenience, the Tayron R-Line will offer ADAS as well as a auto parking function.
Volkswagen are offering the Tayron R-Line with 7 colour options, including:
With the Tayron positioned above the Tiguan R-Line, we expect prices to fall in the range of Rs. 46 lakh to Rs. 50 lakh (ex-showroom). Once launched, the Volkswagen Tayron R-Line will compete with SUVs such as the Skoda Kodiaq, Jeep Meridian, and Toyota Fortuner.
